Guest guest Posted August 5, 2003 Report Share Posted August 5, 2003 Anyone have any suggestions as to what I can use for a pizza base/crust? I tried raw portabella mushroom caps per a recipe from Rhio's Hooked on Raw, and they were okay, but I'm looking for other suggestions. Please keep in mind I HATE sprouting and soaking and all that stuff. I prefer to just throw together stuff and eat it. Funny.. I really don't care much for " real " pizza, but I love raw pizzas. Thanks for any suggestions! Art Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest guest Posted August 8, 2003 Report Share Posted August 8, 2003 I tried dehydrating eggplant as suggested by Dr Graham and found them to be rubbery. The portobella caps are my favorite so far. I also sprout rye and add caraway seeds to make essene crackers which, to me, are great, but you are not looking for this type of idea, so, that's all I'll say about it.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Amy's has a gluten free and vegan pizza that's pretty good. It makes a good base for adding extra veggies to. I've found it at the grocer, but only certain ones. ~ LaDonna ~ On Jan 17, 2008 11:34 AM, pdw <pdworkman wrote: > Anyone seen a commercial pizza that is vegetarian and gfcf?

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 Hmm! I know we get some Amy's up here. I'll have to look for that one, and ask if they can order it if they don't normally.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 You might check the label I think the cheese is organic, but has whey.

Guest guest Posted January 17, 2008 Report Share Posted January 17, 2008 I think Amy's makes one, but it has soy cheese, so I can't use that, either.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I'm eating my Amy's GF pizza right now I think they're a little spendy and I do eat cheese. Could you have a local grocer order them for you? I also have a pizza dough recipe, but I believe it calls for 1 egg and yeast. I wonder if you could use the Energy egg sub? Pizza Dough *note this pizza dough should produce a thin crust. if you change out any of the flours or actually let the yeast proof, it will be a thick crust pizza 3/4 C Bob's GF flour mix 1/4 C bean flour (any kind works, I use Bob's garbanzo/fava blend) 1/4 C cornstarch 1/4 C tapioca starch 1 tsp xantham gum (I've switched this out with guar gum before and had no problems) 1 1/2 tsp GF baking powder 1/2 tsp salt 1/2 tbsp oil 1 Egg 1/2 tsp apple cider vinegar 2 tsp sugar 1 C lukewarm water 1 packet GF yeast Spray baking sheet (very well!) Preheat oven to 425' In a small bowl, combine GF flour, bean flour, cornstarch, tap starch, xantham, baking power, & salt. Set aside. In a large bowl, combine oil, egg, vinegar, 1 tsp sugar In yet another container, add water and the other tsp sugar, mix well. Add yeast packet, mix well. *this is where you chose if you want thick or thin crust Beat oil mix slightly while adding water mix. Then beat in 1/2 flour mix, then rest. Pour (or spoon) batter onto baking sheet. If you chose a thin crust, the dough will look like pancake batter. Bake for 10 minutes BEFORE putting anything on the pizza. Then put on toppings and bake for an additional 20-25 minutes. Enjoy! Marie =) On Jan 17, 2008 2:14 PM, Brenda-Lee Olson <shalomaleichemacademy wrote: > Pam > > They used to.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Actually the mix from Miss Roben's is pretty good. (And I am not just saying that.) We were going to be discontinuing the medium size bag of the mix and so I bought two cases of it in October. The children have used it to make pizza, calzone, pot pie and so. It doesn't require any egg and is gfcf. It has guar gum which gives me fits from time to time, but the children love it and it's easy to make. We discovered it's even nicer though if you leave it sit about 15 - 20 minutes after mixing to give the yeast a chance to work a little before cake prior to topping. Not helpful to Canadians because the shipping is killer because of border crossing brokerage fees, but for those in the US it's something to think about.

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 Thanks Marie. This sounds good, but has corn starch in it. Does anyone know what I might substitute (or a GFDFCF recipe)? PS I'm in Canada so we're more/very limited re mixes; homemade is cheaper and often 'better'!

Guest guest Posted January 18, 2008 Report Share Posted January 18, 2008 I would use additional tapioca starch to replace the cornstarch. It should work just as well.
